Nice back door on your device there, shame if someone put something on there that would incriminate you for something you didn't do. Oh but you feel safer right?

I've had really good experiences with Mint Cinnamon on my laptop at work. They went the direction Ubuntu should have gone for the Desktop.

Because we as a nation keep asking for them because:
* They help our business interests.
* They appeal to our religious convictions.
* They look good and sound good on the local TV.
* We think no wrong of them because it's always the other idiots outside our districts that are the problem all over the country.
* We actually think these people care for us and buy in to the bull in the campaign ads.
Uninformed and uneducated voters are killing the country. They scream about kicking carrier politicians out but never really start with their own house while expecting somoene else to do it elsewhere.

The lack of SD Card reader and easily removable batter kill it though for me. I like easy access to the battery for changes and want flexibility for my storage offline.

I'm running Cinnamon from Mint 14.1 on an Acer Aspire TimelineX and so far the thing has worked without a hitch. I use my laptop for meetings at work and haven't had any troubles with the OS or Cinnamon.

WoW has seriously turned me off to Blizzard games. Seven years in that did have it's good times but that was from the people I met and not from the game I played.
Loved Diablo 1 and 2, haven't even touched Diablo 3. I'll be cracking away at the next cavern in Minecraft when they release this new one.

Or just park an object in the right orbit so it pulls the Earth ever so gently in the direction we want it to go with it's gravity. Less boom boom going even though it might take a while to do it.

Some of the city raids I went on for my server would have been more fun if things didn't lag like they did. While we never had over 3000 people, the numbers were high enough we had the server buckling a few times just by bringing in 3 raid groups to a whole Alliance city.

Step 1: Ask her if she'd be interested in playing a computer game with you sometime when you both have free time and not much interesting going on. If she says yes then go to Step 2.
Step 2: Ask her if she liked playing with blocks, legos, etc as a kid where you can be all kinds of creative. If she says yes then go to Step 3.
Step 3: Buy two copies of Minecraft and see how she likes it. You can setup a private server between your laptops and either be creative together and have fun or survive together and have fun. Either way the key point is having fun together and I chose Minecraft because it can be pretty basic yet very engaging at the same time.
Note: If she doesn't like computer games, invest in a deck of cards or something. UNO was always a good game.
